The Walleye have re-signed a former Bowling Green State University defenseman and have brought back a forward that they traded last season.

Toledo signed BGSU graduate Kyle Page and forward Dominic Osman to contracts yesterday.

Page signed with the Walleye on March 9 after completing his college career. He was named the

Falcons' top defensive player three consecutive seasons. Page scored his first professional goal on April 3 in Kalamazoo and finished the season with three points (1 G, 2 A) in 12 games. Page, of Wixom, Mich., served as BG's team captain for two seasons and was named the team's most valuable player last year.

Osman started the 2009-10 season with the Walleye, appearing in 47 games while scoring 12 goals to go along with 10 assists. The native of Dearborn, Mich., was traded to Florida as part of a three-team deal that brought defenseman Chris Zarb to the Walleye. In 182 professional games, the Lake Superior State graduate has scored 76 goals while adding 56 assists.
